ASSEMBLY STEPS
Required tools to assemble the kit:
Use a small soldering iron of max. 40W.
Use thin (1mm) solder, do not use any flux.
Use a small cutter to trim the excess wires.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Mount the compo-
nents against the
PCB surface and
carefully solder the
leads in place.
Obtain cone-shaped,
shiny soldered joints
by heating up the
component leads suf-
ficiently.
This solder joint
results in a bad
connection.
Trim the excess
wires up to the
level of the sol-
der
•Careless assembly will certainly lead to problems.
•Insert the part, oriented correctly, into its correct holes in the PCB.
•Mount the components in the correct order as stated in this manual.
•Watch out for important remarks.
•The component values in the circuit diagram are for reference only.
The values in this parts list are correct and must be followed.
•Use the boxes qto check off your progress.

19. MOUNTING THE REFLECTOR BEHIND THE TUBE
Solder the reflector on the PCB as shown. Be sure the shiny side faces the
flashtube. For improved efficiency, you can bend it in a parabola shape according
to the drawing. Use a round tube of about 38mm, to create a smooth circle.

!
WARNING : The circuit is directly connected to the mains and carries a
lethal tension ! Make sure that no part of the circuit can be touched during
operation. All capacitors must be fully discharged before touching the cir-
cuit.
The flash tube can reach high temperatures during operation, and can
cause burns.
USE AND TEST
Connect the mains to the connector marked AC mains, the LED should light up.
In one mode, selectable with the switch SW1, the unit should flash when the
power is disconnected. In the other mode the unit can flash continuously, the
flash rate can be adjusted by means of RV1.
As the circuit requires only two wires, a manual remote control can easily be
made by means of a push-button switch (NC contact, 230 V compatible, fig.20).
For automatic control, you can use several of our light control kits : e.g. K2602
four channel runninglight with modulator (fig.21), K5200 four channel multifunction
runninglight (fig.22), K5201 lightcomputer (fig.23). Of course you can use any
other control circuit which is able to switch the mains ON and OFF. Use a wire
diameter of a least 0.75 mm² for all interconnections and be sure to isolate all live
parts.

ABOUT THE ENCLOSURE :
It is recommended to mount the unit an enclosure (due to high voltages).
Provide sufficient airflow by drilling some 4mm ventilation holes in the cabinet.
Use a cable exit grommet for the AC cord. For safety, we recommend you close
the flash-tube side of the box with a glass or plexi window. If a metal enclosure is
used, be sure to earth all the metal parts and to leave a minimum space of 5mm
between the enclosure and any live part.
Two fixation holes are already connected to earth on the PCB as are the metal
parts like the reflector and the switch.
